  • A Powerbook G5, for make musics, the scene on mac grow up, that is expansives
    machines, but the OS is very pleasant !


  • 3-For what specific reason did you end up making music rather than gfx, coding?

  • My first tune was make on Amiga with Noisetraker, but in the same time I learned
    Art and Drawing in my schooldays, I could be graphist, but in 1994, my brother
    was better than me for use Deluxepaint ;-)

  • With no module, I think we must always to improve ourselves !


  • 6-Is there a tune you would like not to remember? For what reason?

  • 7-In your opinion, what's the value of a music in a demo, game?

  • For a best ambience, for not boring ;-)

    musics).


  • 9-What do you think of today's pieces of music such as mpeg,wave,midi,etc...?

  • I prefer Aiff like Wav (. Midi is more expensive, but cool for realtime and
    live show ! Mpeg, why not ! But Mod, Xm.. is for the best composers like us
    in the demoscene !


  • 10-Could you tell us some of your all times favourite tunes?

  • Musics with 4 tracks was wonder, Chris Hülsbeck was a pionner ! Tunes in games

  • A reference, a way to continous.


  • 14-Are you still active in the scene these days?

  • At the moment, I search a new group… If anyone is interested ?
